Hre's me whining again - but this simply shows what is so frustrating.
Here's an old 8-bit computer; that I started with & learned so much
on/with - and I can't use it to 'chat' with; about it!  All the choices
mentioned (& there may be others I'm not aware of) require using anything
BUT an Apple 2, to do it.  Maybe it just cannot do it.  That's not
un-expected - it is an old technology.  It just would be nice it it were
possible to use an A2 system and native software - to connect to and chat
with, other Apple 2 afficionados. I can dream, can't I? :->

Tony, et al.

It's been more than a few years, but my son use to use our IIC+ with a 9600 baud modem to connect to the shell account that our ISP still provides. From there he would "talk" on IRC.
